Cricketers, especially Indians, are on a beard-shaving spree with players such as Ravindra Jadeja, Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya giving the rugged look a break and opting for just a moustache and a stubble.
However, Team India skipper Virat Kohli has refused to follow his teammates in this matter.

The Royal Challengers Bangalore star posted a picture of himself showing his beard and wrote: "Sorry boys @hardikpandya_official @royalnavghan @rohitsharma45 but I am not ready to break the beard yet. Great job on the makeovers though. Kudos."
Jadeja was the first one to start the trend by shaving his beard a few days back when he announced the new look on Instagram.
His post read: "Change the game on the field. Change the look in the dressing room. #BreakTheBeard #rajputboy #newlook #timeforchange #vivoipl #glvsrcb."
Mumbai Indians all-rounder Hardik Pandya took up Jaddu's challenge and posted on Instagram: "Jaddu, this one's for you.We got no dressing room confusions here now. #BreakTheBeard #MIGotStyle #newlook #KKRvGL #OneMoreSurpriseComing."
Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma took up the challenge next and posted his new look on Instagram on Saturday. He posted, "Decided to finally have a summer style of my own. My time to #BreakTheBeard!"
But Kohli isn't willing to take up the challenge.
